My heart is in Clutch City

Hey Rockets fans. I've been chering for you guys since last year to go all the way. I'm a Warrior fan/Laker HATER. I've been arguing with lots of people that Rafer Alston is not only underrated, but under appreciated as well. I wish him well in Orlando, but it just stuck with me to cheer for your Rockets even when he was traded away. I'm also supportive of Dikembe Mutombo. It's a shame his career had to come to a sudden end in the 1st round vs Portland. He's been to the Finals twice, but yet has never received his ring. This man is 42 years old I believe, and even at that age, was still giving the big guys trouble down low prior to his injury.

With all that said, this round 2 match-up is personal to me. As I've stated, it's the team the I want to go all the way vs the team I despise most in all of sports (Them and the Oakland Raiders). More then half of the Laker games they win are tainted. They get all the calls plus get away with murder. One of their championships ('02) shouldn't even be hanging on their rafters. Plus, their bandwagon fans are annoying. Living out here in Northern California, trust me, there are a lot of them. There are lots who cheer for our Warriors then once they're not doing to well, lots of them all of a sudden become Laker fans. It's very sickening.

In closing, it's going to hurt not having T-Mac and Mutombo, but I believe you guys have the players and the extraordinary coaching in Coach Adelman to dethrone the Lakers. I just couldn't beleive most of the media were crowing the Blazers to move past you guys. Low and behold, the Blazers didn't even make it a series. I'm awaiting for ya'll to smash the Lakers tonight and steal homecourt. With much love from the Bay Area out here in the state of California, LET'S GO H-TOWN!!! And as your ex-great coach Rudy Tomjanovich said... "NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE HEART OF A CHAMPION."
